Virginia was the most graceful and beautiful lady in Piney Fork. My grandparents, john and Mary Skerbetz, were best friends. Although they was quite an age difference. My grandpap and Anthony played the accordions and we all listened. I always talked to Virginia in my youth about how beautiful she was---she finally told me her secret---Oil of Olay. God bless her, Anthony, Buster, and Bobby and their families and the endless amount of friends she had. RIP Virginia, now you can be with Roger.

I am Virginia's ex daughter-in-law. I was married to her son Roger. We lived across the street on the farm with Anthony and Virginia with our son Travis Eumenio Sagrilla. I don't know how this didn't get mentioned yesterday but Virginia was a very hard working mother. While raising her sons everyday the boys went to school with starched iron shirts and pants. While Anthony was working in the coal mine and on the farm Virginia was working in the garden and cooking 3 meals a day. During the 4th of July week we always made jam.When she retired and moved to a condo it was hard because no one taught her how to play and relax she just knew how to work. Can you imagine not knowing how to let someone else shovel the snow and take care of the lawn. All of us can imagine that but she and Anthony never got use to it. I will miss her very much.

Anthony, Buster and Bob: When I think of the Sagrilla Family, it is with fond memories and growing up in Piney Fork. Virginia was the epitome of class and kindness. I know she dusted before she paid me to do it!!
